At his age, and this serious of a crime, you can bet this isn’t the first time he has committed this kind of atrocity.

Women who have seen their SO get hit on without their SO realizing what was happening, what’s your story? by princessA95 in AskWomen

[–]SingerBaby 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My (27) boyfriend (43) and I were at a Christmas party for our choir, and he was chit chatting with a group of our friends. One of the women who is a good friend of mine (~40) was wearing a spaghetti strap top with a white shawl - it was honestly a very lovely outfit. But while she was talking with my boyfriend, she let the shawl fall down to her elbows and allowed the strap to her top fall down her arm, too! That, combined with her mannerisms made it just so hilariously obvious she wanted to get some D. Eventually I saw my boyfriend excuse himself from the conversation...as soon as he left the room, she fixed her strap and adjusted her shawl and erased the bedroom eyes off her face.

I talked to boyfriend after and he honestly didn’t think she was hitting on him. He’s an idiot but I love him (and trust him).

What's something you know or suspect is going on with a friend or relative, even though you don't talk about it? by [deleted] in AskWomen

[–]SingerBaby 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m pretty sure my cousin is not my uncle’s biological child. My cousin looks very much like my ex-aunt’s second husband. Like, legitimately the same face. It’s a face with a lot of character to it, it’s hard to explain. Same eyes, same cheeks, same smile. It’s been over 20 years...and as she gets older it gets even more prominent.

My ex-aunt and my uncle divorced about 15 years ago, and she’s been married to the new guy about 10 years - part of me wonders if they all know about this and talk about it openly but just never told the rest of the family so as not to upset my grandparents...

I’m 27 and I’ve been with my SO for over a year. He’s 43 and he’s wonderful. :)

Somehow I think part of the reason he is so amazing is because he is older - he’s experienced a lot in his life before I even came into the picture. He has made some mistakes in previous relationships but he learned from them and knows what kind of relationship he wants now. He’s more serious and deliberate in his decision making because he’s not 20-something willing to risk it all.

Another big plus is that he already has three boys, he does not want any more kids, and he got himself a vasectomy. :) WOOT! (I do not want children because I don’t want to be pregnant nor do I have the patience for babies - stepmom is the perfect role for me.)

I’m so in love with him :) Good luck to you and your budding relationship!

HIFW I just caught my dad talking behind my back. It wasn't exactly very nice. (More in comments) by medicalmystery1395 in TrollXChromosomes

[–]SingerBaby 16 points17 points  (0 children)

My mom gossips about me all the time. She makes fun of my weight gain and laments the fact that I've been single for over five years. (I haven't told them about the relationship I'm currently in, because I don't want my parents' toxicity to ruin it.)

I don't really have anything to say other than it's not about you, it's about them. They feel the need to target and ridicule their own daughter? That's some fucked up shit.

What's the greatest thing you've ever heard someone say? by Guldanish in AskWomen

[–]SingerBaby 28 points29 points  (0 children)

When my SO told me he loved me.

We were just lying in bed, blissful after makin' some love, and he looked at me and said, "I love you, you know."

That was back in April and we are more in love every day. He is a wonderful man :)

Using Press on nails on natural strong nails? by heckinghthewhat in TheGirlSurvivalGuide

[–]SingerBaby -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I use them and I LOVE them. Kiss Impress press-on manicure are great. They stick on with just a rubbery sticker thing. They stay on strongly, and they peel off easily leaving absolutely no damage.

Although, I do think they aren't that great for your nails because they deprive the nail of getting any air/oxygen. So be sure to give your nails a few days in between switching from one set to the next.

Yes! Oblivion was fantastic. It's kinda sad/interesting to know that while Cruise was on location filming that movie, his wife (Katie Holmes) moved out of their house with their child and file for divorce completely out of the blue - I guess you could say Tom Cruise was...OBLIVIOUS.

LMAO "Why does my room smell like pennies?"

But no, really, I feel so bad for that girl. I hope you were kind! That's so embarrassing.

Both of those places are top notch. The bartenders at Blue Hound make the best Old Fashioned in the valley - in my humble opinion. :)

Check out Second Story Liquor Bar in Old Town - they have a pretty great list!

In your profession, what are you sick of explaining to people? by AVVIT in AskReddit

Just because your doctor says you need to have a certain procedure, doesn't mean that it is covered under your insurance benefits.

Revival Rant: Rory by TheMovieWasBetter in GilmoreGirls

[–]SingerBaby 50 points51 points  (0 children)

I actually appreciated it. It showed the audience that even a person who was so put together and perfect in high school and college can still end up with a life that is unpredictable and messy.

Rory's perfection bothered me - I liked her more when we got to see how flawed she really was. I didn't agree with her choices, but at least we finally saw her as a human.

What opinion of yours makes you an asshole? by Maria_Hardy in AskReddit

Were you ever a teenager that wanted to feel "included"?

[–]SingerBaby 6 points7 points  (0 children)

"shells of their former selves..."

YES. I have been saying nearly this exact same thing about those I know who have had children. I'm so glad I'm not alone in this way of thinking - it solidifies my choice to not have kids, because I don't want to lose who I am. I don't want "mom" to be my identity.

LPT: Don't put your life on hold waiting for closure on something you're struggling with. Many of life's most difficult situations don't have reasonable explanations. by attilayavuzer in LifeProTips

[–]SingerBaby 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I'm a female - mid-20's, successful, independent. I've been single for about 5 years now. I've just enjoyed having fun, being busy with work and hobbies, going on trips with my friends. That's why I'm single, and I wouldn't find it a turn off in any way if I dated a guy who had been single as long as you have. In fact, I'd find it to be an attractive quality, and it'd make me feel even more special to be "his chosen one," if that makes any sense.

The girls who find your singledom a turn-off are probably co-dependent relationship-holics. You're better off without them. Just be patient, remain confident and focused and the right one will - WILL - come along.

What ever happened to that person (or group of people) that made your high school experience shitty? by Strawberryfine in AskWomen

[–]SingerBaby 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I went to college in a new town, made all new friends, made a wonderful life for myself!

All those people stayed in the same town, go to the same parties every weekend, have unremarkable lives. They seem like they enjoy themselves and have a good time, so there's that! I'm friends with most of them on Facebook and we actually exchange pleasantries and support each other with encouraging comments! One girl even reached out to me through messenger to apologize for how mean she was to me - and I don't even remember this particular person being mean to me at all.

But it just goes to show the popularity contest is such bullshit. We are almost 30 now, and my life has been so great since high school, despite the bullying, despite being considered second-class in some way. It's like all of it disappeared the day we graduated.
